Gorky Zero

Stealth action game from Metropolis Software House. Gorky Zero, a prequel to Gorky 17, is a third-person shooter in the vein of Splinter Cell and Metal Gear Solid and set in the Ukraine. In addition to the usual stealth action elements, you are able to fire around corners like in kill.switch and use a Silent Kill method with any weapon in one hit, if you catch the enemy off-guard and aim correctly. The action is shown from two different camera views: a third-person top view while navigating levels, and a behind-the-character view for aiming and shooting. To help him avoid enemies and sneak into installations, the game's hero, Cole Sullivan, also has a radar and a variety of high-tech gadgets at his disposal. The story was written by Rafal Ziemkiewicz, one of Poland's most famous sci-fi writers.
